Design of high-deflection foils MHK applications - FEA models - RivGen Turbines
Abstract
The Ocean Renewable Power Company's (ORPC's) goal is to design, develop, and test hydrofoils with large deflections. The effects of the deflections on cross-flow turbine performance would be evaluated in order to inform design considerations for full-scale water turbines and other marine hydrokinetic devices.
FEA models - NASTRAN
